The drawing is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

24 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image, we can see that AB and DE are both adjacent sides of their respective triangles.

While, CE and BC are both opposite sides of their respective triangles

Now, from your side, x is the distance to the island.

So, from ratio of similar triangles, we can find x.

Thus;

8/x = 3/9

Cross multiply to get;

8 × 9 = 3x

3x = 72

x = 72/3

x = 24

Thus, distance from your side to the island is 24 yards

Answer:

The degrees of freedom associated with the critical value is 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of values in the final calculation of a statistic that are free to vary is referred to as the degrees of freedom. That is, it is the number of independent ways by which a dynamic system can move, without disrupting any constraint imposed on it.

The degrees of freedom for the t-distribution is obtained by substituting the values of n1​ and n2​ in the degrees of freedom formula.

Degrees of freedom, df = n1​+n2​−2

                                       = 15+12−2=27−2=25​

Therefore, the degrees of freedom associated with the critical value is 25.

Let f(x)= 7-2x Find a. f(4) b. f(h) c. f(4) + f(h) d. f(3+h)
anyanavicka [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

a) f(4) = 7-2(4)

= -1

b) f(h) = 7-2(h)

= 7-2h

c) f(4) + f(h) = -1 +(7-2h)

= 6-2h

h = 3

d) f(3+h) = 7-2(3+h)

= 7-6-2h

= -1-2h

2h= -1

h = -1/2

p/s = if the real answer is different with my answer, tell me also please. Im just a student that still learning.

Which is the best linear model for the data shown in the scatter plot?​
Studentka2010 [4]

The best linear model for the data that's illustrated will be y = 10x + 5

<h3>What is a linear model?</h3>

It should be noted that a linear model simply means model where the terms are added. It should be noted that this can be used in connection with the regression model.

Here, the best linear model for the data will be:

= (10 × x) + 5

= 10x + 5

Therefore, the best linear model for the data that's illustrated will be y = 10x + 5.
